T.J. and I went to eat here. It's the #7 chinese restaurant in the united states, located in columbus, georgia, usa. It is a winner of the top 100 restaurants out of 45,000. There is a bridge you walk over with gold fish swimming beneath in a small stream, and inside the restaurant are glass walls carved with flowers and water flows between the glass walls. We were there 8/28/2022 sunday night. From my table I used my tablet to log into my grid, and let my avatar sit down and eat. hahahaha. crazy! :) Of course I could only use chopstix in real life. :O Lumiya still worky in 2022! :)

If your region uses the SmartStart feature of Dreamgrid, there is now a new setting in your region's settings page. If you enable it, your region will show as "online" even when your region is frozen. For Kitely regions this setting is automatically enabled. (If you don't use SmartStart or DreamGrid, you can safely ignore this message :)

Plug Yourself In And D-D-Dance!
You might wear this hat to a blues or even a country music club. But these Techo Addict pants would likely look out-of-place at those places. Last I checked, Techno-Blues or Techno-Country were not a thing. Techno is strictly electronic music. Grab this outfit, head to a techno music club, plug yourself in, and d-d-dance!

oh HELLO: Outfits with Options

I wanted to open the sim for public next year, but I got not so good news, so I open it right away so that you have another choice of fun shopping.
Nice mix of items of every kind and for every kind of festive Occasions. Beside this some fun items ,dont take it to serious..
PS.check out the wooden boxes..it might be worth it . A lot of scripted items inside the region..everything is working, so you can try all things you would like to buy out!

“…every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.”
There are bell towers without bells. Instead, they make use of an electronic device to simulate the sound of bells. Then there are bell towers with bells, but the ringing of the bells is automated. However, my college had real bells in it's bell tower, and real live bell-ringers -- student volunteers who were members of what I called the "Ding-A-Ling Club."

I thought of them as I assembled this outfit. The wings, harness and bra are from a set of clothes named Angel's Sorrow. Why would angels be sorrowful? Well, as it's said, "every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.” Is there currently a shortage of ding-a-lings in the world? As I look around me, I have to say, "I think not".

Oh HELLO

PINK & PURPLE
When I think about pink shorts, I think about purple hair. And when I think about purple hair, I think about pink shorts. A lot of thought has gone into this outfit, including wondering if cowboy boots should be part of it. Thankfully, the answer was "yes!"

oh HELLO: Outfits for thinking people with purple hair & love of cowboy boots...
